E-Courses

What you are getting is an out-of-the-ordinary ethics course. In five different 3 CE Hour sections plus an introductory 1 CE Hour course, you will be going through a whole program and essentially get to download the content of an entire book which is both a guide and resource. This approach addresses topics unusual to ethics courses, like personal and role power, self-care, resolving difficulties, feedback, shadow, and shame. Each course is a stand-alone course and each builds on the others. The courses can be taken in any order and spread out over any length of time.

This is ethics in its largest context as right use of power and influence. This is embodied and engaged ethics--ethics from the inside-out, power with both heart and strength, ethical wisdom tuned to the special dynamics of the therapist/client relationship.

The Self-Reflective exercises at the end of each chapter are recommended for getting full benefit from the course, but are not required and will not be tested. The information is for your personal use.

​Please note: the CEU material is taken directly from the Right Use of Power: The Heart of Ethics book and the portions of the book needed to complete the CEU will be provided to you in pdf format after purchase.

Users have said:

This program "elevates the entire discussion of ethical issues far above a philosophy of 'avoiding' legal issues,' to a philosophy of service with highest regard for humanity and the processes that facilitate a higher moral ground." (Laura Dodson)

Simply "the best book I've seen on the ethics, dangers, and potentials inherent within helping relationships. This is the book I wish I had read when I was first training as a psychotherapist." (Bill Plotkin)

"The approach of this book helps people graduate to a deeper connection to their own ethical natures, an internal sense of their own integrity, and a personal view of what is right in their relations with clients." (Rob Fisher)

Power is the ability to have an effect or to have influence. This ability we are born with. As helping professionals, because of the power difference, we have greatly increased ability to have effect and to have influence. To use this increased power with wisdom and skill, we need to learn to use our power with compassion and strength. This overview course provides a foundation and conceptual framework.
